The pilots that go wrong rarely fail on technology - they fail on definition. Nobody wrote down what success looked like, so the wrap-up meeting becomes a debate about feelings, and the safest decision is always "let's revisit next year." A pilot without exit criteria isn't a pilot; it's a delay with extra steps.
This infographic is the antidote: a 60–120 day roadmap where every milestone is agreed on day one - cards in officers' hands by week 2, the first ten completed surveys by week 4, and a scheduled go/no-go review where the decision is made with data instead of anecdotes. Because each checkpoint is observable, both the chief and the skeptics know exactly what would count as failure, which is precisely what makes a "yes" credible. Use it to structure the pilot proposal itself, or hand it to a city manager who has been burned by open-ended trials before.
